The ability to have your secure password data with you on all of your devices is one of the most important features of 1Password. Of course, strong encryption of your data is vital as well, but it is sync that ensures that you can use these strong and unique passwords across all your devices easily.

Ensuring that users have access to their data everywhere they need it is not always a simple process. Let’s take a look at the development of Wi-Fi sync in 1Password, and see some of the great improvements our developers have made lately.

The beginning of Wi-Fi

We begin back before the dawn of 1Password 4. The Wi-Fi Sync of 1Password 3 provided a… less than ideal user experience. When our developers sharpened their tools to craft 1Password 4, the initial version of 1Password 4 for iOS was released without the feature.

Users were not content with this omission and lobbied us by forum and by email and by all means necessary, declaring their love for Wi-Fi Sync (and as well they should!) Hearing their pleas, our developers went back to the Agile Forge and re-designed Wi-Fi Sync for its triumphant return in 1Password 4 for Mac.
